David,
One of the mysteries of the internet I guess!
Site looks good and user friendly to new users, well done and thank you for upgrading "our great forum"

Regards
Paul :)

Not sure why that would be the case as the address has not changed. It is good to know the solution in case others experience the same.

Best wishes
David

I have noticed that the 'Forum latest' information on the right of the screen now combines posts on the same subject so that the list is more latest threads than latest posts.

Above the Forum Latest are the words 'Close info'. Clicking this hides the information in the column on the right and increases the size of the main body. Clicking 'Open info' restores it.

I have fixed a few issues this morning:

1. Forum rules now displays.
2. Forum help now displays.
3. Registered users can post comments on articles.
4. The forum menu has been separated out to be its own menu.
5. Bookmarked URLs should now work again.
6. Books no longer display in blog format (several chapters on a single page) but as individual articles.

Actions outstanding:

1. I have almost completed the creation of the image thumbnails. The RPR remain.
2. This exercise has thrown up a few issues on some pages which need investigation.
3. The online shop needs to be added.

Other than these three, my action list is now complete so if there is anything you spot, please let me know.

With thanks
David

Morning David,
"Books" section is 100% better, much easier to read.

Thanks
Paul :)

Congratulations on the successful transition. Thanks to Frank I avoided one potential problem and so far everything else seems perfect.

Regards
Brett

PS I hate changes to packaging, whether it is the supermarket or on the Internet, so I looked forward to the ABW Forum change with some trepidation.

Thank you Brett.

You will not have seen very much change in the site when you logged on this morning, especially in the forum?

One of the options in the forum is to list the entries in reverse order so that the most recent posts are at the top. Would that be a good way to read the threads in the forum?

Regards
David
